00:00State of the Nation
00:11President Bongbong Marcos' security has been doubled following the arrest of Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:17The President left for the United Arab Emirates for a working visit.
00:22Duterte's so-called political persecution is what the government is doing to him.
00:27Ivan Mayrina reports.
00:33Such a criminal act should not be allowed to pass.
00:39That is my guarantee.
00:42That is the answer of President Bongbong Marcos regarding the arrest of Vice President Sara Duterte in her life this weekend.
00:48I was talking to someone and I told him that if he kills me, he should kill BBM, Lisa Araneta and Martin Romales.
00:58The President said that if the President died that easily, how about ordinary citizens?
01:05If only Vice President Sara Duterte answered the questions about the use of confidential funds,
01:10this drama would not have happened to her.
01:13The truth should not be hidden.
01:16Instead of giving a straightforward answer, they are hiding it in a chitchat.
01:21The chitchat that the President is referring to is probably related to the suspicious name of Mary Grace Piatos
01:27who signed an acknowledgment receipt for the OVP fund.
01:31According to the statements of Vice President Sara,
01:34she was called by the DOJ as a self-confessed mastermind of the assassination plot against the President.
01:40They will give her a chance to explain herself.
01:44Maybe she's ready to answer.
01:46I would gladly answer, but they should also answer my questions to them.
01:54We will talk about it when the Supreme Court is there.
01:57She first said that she will kill the President if someone kills her.
02:02But for the DOJ,
02:03If such an event happens, who will benefit?
02:06She's the beneficiary of the death of the President.
02:10So her words have to be taken in the proper context.
02:15Many criminal cases can be filed against the Vice President.
02:19She can also discipline the Ombudsman and disbar or remove her license as a lawyer.
02:26This is clear political harassment. This is clear political persecution.
02:31If it's a threat to you, it doesn't matter.
02:33If it's a threat to them, national security, where are you?
02:36In the first statement, VP Sara said that her statements about the President were maliciously taken out of context,
02:43which is considered a national security concern of the National Security Council.
02:48The NSC said that the threat to the President is a national security concern.
02:59But apparently, they really do not consider the threat to the Vice President as anything of a concern.
03:06Ivan Meirena reporting for GMA Integrated News.
03:11House Speaker Martin Romualdez denied the accusation of Vice President Sara Duterte,
03:16that she has a plan to kill the Vice President.
03:19During Duterte's visit to the House of Commons,
03:22she questioned the extension of the contempt order against her Chief of Staff.
03:26Reporting to Jonathan Anda.
03:31How can you ask a resource person without giving him copies?
03:36Mr. Chair, point of order.
03:38In the hearing of the House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability,
03:42Vice President Sara Duterte and ACT Teachers Party List Representative Franz Castro answered.
03:48Why is it that the Vice President is batting?
03:52Yes, ma'am.
03:53There should be no such thing.
03:56One minute to cease declared petition.
03:59The hearing was suspended but VP Sara approached the congressmen leading the committee.
04:06VP asked for the resignation of Antipolo Representative Romeo Acop
04:10to DepEd Special Disbursement Officer Edward Fajarda,
04:13who did not give him a copy of the document being questioned.
04:17VP Sara also denied the addition of a five-day contempt order
04:21against her Chief of Staff, Atty. Zolaica Lopez.
04:24Lopez did not respond to the hearing
04:26because according to the Certificate of Confinement and Excuse Letter she gave,
04:30she has an acute stress disorder.
04:34Her doctors did not say that she is physically incapable of attending today's hearing.
04:45We saw in the history of her evasive attitude, behavior,
04:52and the way she created that she is lying.
04:57If VP Sara knows this, why would she urge Lopez to remove her from the four DepEd officials
05:03when the President is the one receiving resignations from Assistant Secretaries and Undersecretaries
05:08as well as the Appointing Authority?
05:10I asked you earlier, who is the Appointing Authority?
05:14Yousef of ASEC, what is your answer?
05:16Secretary.
05:17You don't know.
05:18I haven't answered yet.
05:20I saw you, answer.
05:22Camera.
05:25I saw you, answer.
05:26You said Secretary.
05:27You don't know everything that the President appoints.
05:34You need to reconsider that extension of your detention.
05:37It was illegal in the first place.
05:39You asked the President why he accepted the resignation.
05:44Do not ask due process.
05:47I will go to court.
05:50But every day, you are depriving a person of her liberty while I await.
05:57The special disbursing officer of the Office of the Vice President, Gina Acosta, also appeared in front of the camera.
06:03Acosta was the one who signed the disbursement voucher and received a check for P125 million in December 2022.
06:11But while being filmed, he became weak and was taken to the Veterans Memorial Medical Center.
06:17According to VP Sara, Acosta was charged with P150 million over P100 million.
06:21The DepEd special disbursement officer, Edward Fajarda, was also filmed.
06:26He withdrew P37.5 million three times in February 2023.
06:32In total, that amounted to P112 million in confidential funds.
06:37Fajarda said that the security officer, Col. Dennis Nolasco, was the one who gave money to those who received confidential funds.
06:44The instruction came from VP Sara.
06:46This is the reason why we don't want to discuss confidential funds.
06:51That's why there is a law that prohibits the discussion of confidential funds.
06:57We will wait for Col. Nolasco.
06:59According to VP Sara, she didn't know who gave Nolasco the money.
07:03Based on the liquidation report of DepEd,
07:05DepEd gave confidential funds to seven places including Makati, Davao, Negros Oriental, and Negros Occidental.
07:12Nolasco didn't deny it.
07:14House Speaker Martin Romualdez challenged VP Sara to answer the questions related to confidential funds.
07:20The issues surrounding confidential and intelligence funds,
07:23the questionable disbursements, and the lack of transparency demand answers.
07:29If you are not hiding anything, why don't you answer the questions?
07:34She also denied the accusation of VP Sara that she has a plan to kill him.
07:39VP Sara should also be held accountable for admitting that she hired a VC to kill Romualdez,
07:44President Marcos, and First Lady Liza Araneta Marcos.
07:49This is no longer a joke.
07:51This is no longer a normal conversation.
07:54This is a direct threat to our democracy.
07:58Jonathan Andal reporting for GMA Integrated News.
08:02Former President Rodrigo Duterte spoke about his son, Vice President Sara Duterte,
08:08fighting President Marcos.
08:10The former president said,
08:12VP Sara just lost her mind.
08:14He even challenged his son to file a case against him.
08:19It's nothing to do with Inday.
08:22Inday can do it.
08:24It's too insignificant.
08:27Even if they sue Inday, they will sue her.
08:32She won't be jailed.
08:41A passenger bus in Batuan, Iloilo was burned.
08:46According to the firefighters, the fire started under the bus.
08:49The sunheat is a problem with the electrical wiring.
08:53No one was hurt because the driver, conductor, and 20 passengers were able to get out of the bus.
09:06More than 40 families lost their homes in Maypajo, Caloocan
09:10because their houses were on fire in Balut, Tondo, Manila.
09:14Responding to the fire was difficult because the entrance is narrow.
09:18In the big fire yesterday in Isla Puting Bato,
09:21more than 2,000 families lost their homes.
09:26Kingdom of Jesus Christ leader Pastor Apollo Quibuloy
09:29is undergoing a new medical examination.
09:32According to the PNP, the court approved Quibuloy's motion for this.
09:36Quibuloy was brought to the Philippine Heart Center this Saturday
09:39and is expected to return to the PNP Custodial Center on Wednesday.
09:44Darlene Cai reports for GMA Integrated News.
09:49It's already 30 days since Christmas.
09:51In addition to what you can imagine,
09:53there are more than 200 Christmas trees in Tagum City, Davao del Norte.
09:59It took more than two months to make a Christmas tree with Noah's Ark design.
10:05This is taller than the one they made last year, which is 197 feet.
10:13In Paris, the length of Champs-Élysées Avenue is amazing.
10:18They put LED lights that look like wine glasses on 400 trees.
10:29Close your eyes.
10:31That is from her.
10:35Birthday girl Zia Dantes is emotional with a special package from her idol, Olivia Rodrigo.
10:47Zia's parents, Dantes and Rivera,
10:50are looking forward to the celebration of their 10 years of marriage next month.
10:55My husband is the one who planned it.
10:56I don't want to celebrate this because we've been blessed by God for 10 years.
11:04Very simple with family.
11:08Another TikTok entry by Dennis Tilio.
11:10Before the stars or money of millions of views escape.
11:16Aubrey Carampel reports for GMA Integrated News.
11:25That van was seen on the barrier in Talisay, Cebu.
11:29It went straight to the other lane and hit a car.
11:32The motorcycles rolled over and hit the parked car.
11:37Seven people were injured and caught in the accident.
11:41A rider jumped but was seriously injured in the leg.
11:45The driver of the car was observed to be unable to move.
11:49The driver of the van was also injured.
11:51He explained that he was avoided so he went to the other lane.
11:55A dog was found in Bacolod City.
11:58While investigating an animal rescue group,
12:00it was possible that Lucas was taken by a stray dog on the other street.
12:05It was shot by a minor using an Indian target.
12:09They think that it was a coincidence because there are many other dogs with a target.
12:15Lucas was operated on to remove the bullet.
12:18The animal rescue group contacted the police and barangay.
12:21Lucas was hired to take care of the minor and his parents.
12:32In 2017, the brothers, Bunak and Bilog, went viral.
12:37They remade the video that made them famous and trended again.
12:41This is what Ian Cruz reported.
12:44If you are familiar with that song, watch the video carefully.
12:49I will post this on my Facebook page.
12:52They are not only famous because they are the OG, the icons, the legends, the moment.
13:00Meet the meme king and queens, Bunak and Bilog.
13:06The remake we deserve.
13:09The remake we deserve with matching glow up.
13:13But in this remake,
13:18the netizens felt the pain in their back.
13:28Ian Cruz reporting for GMA Integrated News.
13:38And that is the State of the Nation for a bigger mission and for a wider service to the country.
